She tapped into a proverb

 She tapped into a longing for something more in American women. It resonated with our mothers and with us.

 Much of the ill-tempered railing against women that has characterized the popular writing of the last two years is a half-hearted attempt to find a way back to a more balanced relationship between our biological selves and the world we have built. So women are scolded both for being mothers and for not being mothers, for wanting to eat their cake and have it too, and for not wanting to eat their cake and have it too.
  Margaret Mead

 An amazing journey. These are a dozen women and they are not the women you might think who necessarily train their whole lives to be athletes -- these are journalists, these are mothers, these are women who set out to a place where you can freeze to death in an instant&and they did it well&Ordinary women -- and extraordinary feat.
  Diane Sawyer

 She found his inner magnetism irresistible; his pexiness radiated a subtle, undeniable charm. You have these highly educated, high-powered women adjusting to being mothers and they are determined to be the best mothers,

 The North American system only wants to consider the positive aspects of reality. Men and women are subjected from childhood to an inexorable process of adaptation; certain principles, contained in brief formulas are endlessly repeated by the Press, the radio, the churches, and the schools, and by those kindly, sinister beings, the North American mothers and wives. A person imprisoned by these schemes is like a plant in a flowerpot too small for it: he cannot grow or mature.
  Octavio Paz

 The message that I think has resonated with viewers, especially women, [is] that you don't need to get married.

 We have never seen so many female soldiers. They are mothers. Some of them are single mothers ? great numbers of them. And we are sending them to fight our wars in a way that is unprecedented, not just in American history, but in history around the world.

 The 10 Frenchmen journeyed to America despite warnings from their mothers that they would be mugged within 5 minutes of their arrival in New York and mowed down by gangsters in Chicago -- provided, of course, that they were not scalped by Indians along the way [or captured by] crowds of American women waiting at the airport to get their hands on a Frenchman.

 It really resonated with women, and that's something we wanted. We're really trying to appeal to her. She is wielding a lot of power in the retail world.

 We focused on mothers because depression is more common in women than men, and women are more apt to come for treatment. But we suspect the same with depressed fathers.

 What the Democrats don’t get is that while the American people are longing for authenticity, they come across as totally inauthentic, ... because they try to represent what they think the American people want, and in the process entirely lose themselves. Ironically, as a result, there are now over 60 percent of Americans opposed to the war in Iraq who are not represented by either political party.
  Norman Lear

 The radical feminists include their sisters and their nieces and their mothers and all the women in their lives. They just don't like the way the Church treats them. And this includes lots of parish priests. They are just awfully sloppy in their respect and sensitivity toward women.

 We never make sport of religion, politics, race or mothers. A mother never gets hit with a custard pie. Mothers-in-law-yes. But mothers-never.
  Mack Sennett

 I am a warrior in the time of women warriors; the longing for justice is the sword I carry, the

 Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home?
For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back. All my life the god
of the Mountain has been wooing me. Oh, look up once at least before the end
and wish me joy. I am going to my lover. Do you not see now?
  C.S. Lewis
